I’ve had ties to Atlanta for most of my life now. It’s eye opening to realize that my dad moved to Atlanta almost 27 years ago! That’s almost 2/3 of my life, and it’s 1/4 of his! Dad has lived … Continue reading

iphone blogging
I’m doing a couple of new things on the old blog… I just updated my WordPress version, which has temporarily caused my ‘blog.buckymcoinkumsbbq.com’ address to not work. This will be fixed, hopefully quickly. And with that, I can now blog … Continue reading
back to the barbecue basics
I really do enjoy doing new things on the Big Green Egg, figuring out how to smoke something that’s not usually smoked or how to bake something on the BGE instead of in the oven. Sometimes, though, I have to … Continue reading
i love great espresso!
Yeah, I know. Everyone loves great coffee, or at least lots of people do. I really love it, but the odd thing is I don’t drink it very often. I kind of have to be in the mood for it. … Continue reading
smoked tomatoes
I don’t remember a year where our tomato season has lasted so long. It’s mid October, and we’re still getting tomatoes! I stopped by our favorite local tomato supplier, a family that just has a great garden and sells their … Continue reading

More photos! These include yet more food, including a great reuben sandwich, a brat with kraut, and spiced almonds (can’t resist that cinnamon smell near the booth!) on a caramel sundae. I’m krauted out, until next year!
“live” festival photos
The 2008 Ohio Sauerkraut festival is in full swing. We took a quick trip into town, paid $5 at a local church to park (money goes to the youth group), and had some sauerkraut. I’m just going to share some … Continue reading
the best $3 burger I’ve ever had
My wife and I decided to go for a drive yesterday, and we ended up at the ‘trendy’ shopping spot of Dayton, Ohio, called the Greene. It’s one of those outdoor malls with a fountain and bands playing and apartments … Continue reading
autumn festivals are here!
One thing I enjoy about fall in Ohio is the abundance of festivals. It’s not so much the crap sold at most of them, but the food!!! Over the past several years, it seems better and better food is made … Continue reading
My first chimichurri sauce
I was watching the Food Network the other day, and Tyler’s Ultimate was one. I actually like this show, and I think Tyler Florence has some great ideas on the show. Last week, he was making pork tenderloin with chimichurri … Continue reading
